God is pouring out a fresh outpouring to fulfill His command*

A.      Word in prayer and fasting (January 16-18):  “There is a new demand coming upon the body of Christ.

Men of God have had to beg My people to do the work I have called them to do.

No longer will they beg.

I will no longer allow My people to ignore My servants while they pretend to follow Me.

I am putting an authority in the voice of My leaders whereby My people will know that it is not man who has given them their duty and command, but God.

Leaders will begin to command My people to do the work that I have called them to do.

This ministry is of Me and people will be held accountable to Me.

If they refuse, they will know that they have not refused man but the Lord who has purchased and called them.

If they do it willingly then they shall have a reward.

If they do it begrudgingly, then they will complete their stewardship but shall have no reward.

My people will no longer sit in judgment over another man’s servant or question another man’s work.

Each will have his or her own work and will seek to be pleasing to the One who called him or her.

I am the Lord and I have given to each according to My good pleasure.

To Me alone they will rise or fall.

To Me alone they will give account in that final day.”
